Ellie had been having a hell of a day, to say the least. It wasn't as though any one thing in particular was bothering her, instead it was a multitude of little things. She was behind on several pieces of homework, she spilled coffee down her shirt first thing in the morning, and she had tripped going up the stairs to one of her classes, bruising her knees and earning several snickers in her direction. Though in typical Elle form, she refused to acknowledge any of this, pulling herself up and giving all of her spectators a small bow and wave before moving on.
But really, she was just tired. And homework didn't seem like all that much fun, and to be quite honest, when she dozed off in class after lunch she had some annoyingly sweet dreams of memories involving her parents, which only served to make her the slightest bit down. But she knew exactly how to cheer herself up! So, once classes were finished for the day, she headed down to the kitchens. And though they were busy preparing dinner, Ellie had been charming them for years now, and they happily lent her a few tasty treats and two bottles of butterbeer before she trekked back to the Hufflepuff common room, which was thankfully rather close by. Catching sight of her intended target, she plopped down next to Ernie unceremoniously before leaning her head on his shoulder. "What's up, buttercup?!" she asked brightly, handing him one of the two bottles in her hands and popping the cap off of hers taking a drink. "It feels like today is never going to end."
